I am scintillating. Read on and see for yourself.
I had so little to do at work today that I went through and cleaned out our two cabinets full of archived marketing materials. Then I came home, put the laundry in the dryer and fell asleep on the couch. I woke up only because the dryer was beeping, just as Anders came home from getting his hair cut.
I sat at the kitchen table with my chin in my hands and bemoaned the fact that I didn’t have any ideas for making dinner until Anders caved in and made macaroni and meatballs, with a side plate of sliced veggies. We’ve been buying this new type of meatball, called Farfars Köttbullar (Grandad’s meatballs) and they are capital-D delicious. Karin still isn’t home; she went to Lomma beach today with friends. It was HOT today and my hair reacted predictably. It looks TERRIBLE. I am so glad my hair appointment is tomorrow; then Anders won’t be the only fresh-cut looker in the house.
I let the neighbor’s cat in and petted her but then I abandoned that to write this post and browse new music on Spotify. New music by some artists I really like: score! I moved a bunch of blogs that I used to love to a separate list on my sidebar today, too…the ones who haven’t posted in more than a year and a half. It’s a depressingly long list. I miss the good old blogging days when everyone kept us up to date on their lives.
No wonder no one comments on my posts. They’re not online anymore. *sigh*
I’m reading the third book of Ken Follet’s Millennium trilogy. He’s definitely not the best writer, but now I want to see the end of this. The first book covered the lead-up to and WWI and the second book covered the inter-war period and WWII. This one starts in the early 60’s and covers the Cold War. I’m reading about the Cuban Missile Crisis now, which I really didn’t know much about. I think I’ve always had it confused with the Bay of Pigs incident, but they were two separate Cuba-related crises. Anyway, it’s a big-ass book and I need to get through it because I still have to read the book for book group at the end of this month.
That’s all I can think of, right now. See? Scintillating doesn’t even begin to cover it!
